Leavenworth, Kan.

While Peter Cottontail is off musing for the whereabouts of Bugs, let's get started...

* Last week, I was chastised for neglecting to provide my health tip of the week. So, we are doing it first this week.

This week's topic ― How to make time for health when you're busy.

1) Write exercise into your planner/calendar.

2) Make big batches of meals and snacks at the beginning of the week.

3) If you feel guilty working out when you need to be studying or working, then combine the two.

4) Get up early to work out or bring gym clothes with you and exercise immediately after work or school.

5) Make a workout buddy or attend workout classes at a gym and make friends in the class.

I personally excel at tip No. 2.

* Speaking of Peter Cottontail and Harvey, they have called on Thumper to spread the word of the City of Leavenworth Parks and Recreation Department's Easter Egg Hunt on March 23 at 1 p.m.

We will all be joining Peter Cottontail and all of the friends he is gathering at the 10th Avenue Park just south of Warren Middle School.

If you put your ear to the ground to listen to Thumper's message, you will hear that Sagasu Family Martial Arts has many exciting plans for folks of all ages.

I understand that Master Baker has joined in the hunt for Bugs in hopes of locating him before the big egg hunt.

* Wednesday night we completed our second week of adult coed volleyball. After two exciting weeks I can already tell you that we have some really exciting volleyball being played.

At this point, Small N Explosive (Philip Martin) and Zeck Ford/GLN (Stacy Wolters) are tied for first at 1-0. Boom (Laura Ruble) and Pancake Pack are tied at 1-1 for third place.

At this time, Block Party (Ryan Hoppe) is in fifth place. They are playing on Wednesday nights, come out and join them.

* Remember that on Monday nights, we have exciting adult women's volleyball.

The games are becoming tighter as the season progresses. Dominators (Ruth Striggow) defeated Six Pack (Kim Todd Rhoades) 25-15 and 25-18. Boom (Sherri Schwinn) defeated Diggin' It (Lona Lanter) in two games.

The Drillers (Wendy Sachen) still leads the adult women's league with a 5-0 record, followed closely by the 5-1 Boom.
